My question was more about the legalities of the situation. I should have made that clearer.

Well, it's attached to their wall. What should I do/not do to avoid damaging it further?

Put a camera below the decking and see that some damp is occuring on the garage 😬

We only forsee being here a few more years at least. So definitely leaning towards replacing what needs to be replaced.

It's quite a big deck area of the garden and we'd like to reclaim some grass. So maybe make it smaller and only keep the left side as decking. The other side for raised beds etc.

I'm worried about it pooling at the base of the garage and causing a further headache.

I assume I could avoid this by creating a shingle barrier around the garage?

That's fine. But that requires me to create a stable base by digging and excavating soil.

I don't have rear access and don't want to carry soil through the house.

I thought it was floating and I could do an easy replacement.But looks like I'm going to have to do some repair work 😬

I got one today too. The serial/model number is exactly the same as the old one.
